Chapter 69: The Southern Floods

"In that case, then hurry up and arrange it, do you have any objections?" Xie Junze glanced at the officials led by Prime Minister Wan Cheng and opened his mouth angrily.

When Prime Minister Wan Cheng heard him say this, he thought about it for a while before he stood up and said, "Your Majesty, you must not, the treasury is empty, the tax and silver cannot be collected, and you have to allocate funds, this is ...... What if other countries come to provoke our country and want to go to war? ”

Old fox, I thought you were going to never open your mouth, Xie Junze looked at Prime Minister Wan, and a touch of playfulness slipped through his eyes.

"Then according to what the prime minister said, what should I do?" Xie Junze opened his mouth quietly and dug a pit for the old fox Prime Minister Wan.

"This ......" Prime Minister Wan was in trouble for a while, and he didn't know what to do.

"Bang," seeing Prime Minister Wan's hesitation, Xie Junze suddenly became angry and swept all the folds on the table, "This is not good, that is not good, all Aiqing knows that the floods in the south are serious and the situation is in crisis, but they are still grinding and chirping here, hesitating, do you have to wait until the people launch a riot Aiqing will find a way to solve it?" ”

"Your Majesty is angry, and the ministers must do their best to solve the problem of flooding in the south." Seeing that the emperor was angry, all the ministers knelt down in unison.

"Okay, if you Aiqing can't think of a solution tomorrow, then you don't have to go to the court, take off the black gauze hat on your head, and order someone to send it to the palace." Xie Junze stood up, looked at the kneeling people on the ground, and left angrily, and Gonggong Li hurriedly followed.

"Congratulations to the emperor." Watching Xie Junze leave, the ministers slowly stood up and walked out of the imperial study.

Out of the imperial study, he saw Jiang Baizhu waiting outside at a glance, snorted coldly, and Xie Junze walked over without saying a word.

Looking at his angry appearance, Jiang Baizhu was a little puzzled, who provoked this faint monarch again, looking at Gonggong Li who followed behind, Jiang Baizhu walked over quickly.

"Gonggong Li, what's wrong with Your Majesty?" Jiang Baizhu walked next to Gonggong Li and asked quietly.

"Alas, it's not a matter of flooding in the south, Your Majesty is worried about the people, but your lords can't give any solution, so Your Majesty is angry." Gonggong Li looked at His Majesty the Emperor who was walking in front and said with a bitter face.

Nodding, Jiang Baizhu said that he understood, and quickly chased after him. "Your Majesty, it's better to go to the Lianhua Pavilion for dinner today

Well, you can enjoy the lotus flowers, and the breeze blows, which is also very comfortable. ”

Xie Junze thought about it, nodded, turned his footsteps, and went to the Lianhua Pavilion in the direction of Cheng'en Palace, set up the meal, Jiang Baizhu stepped aside, and waited silently for him to finish the meal.

Thinking about the flood in the south, Xie Junze hastily ate two bites and put down the chopsticks, Gonggong Li saw that His Majesty basically didn't eat much, and secretly gave Jiang Baizhu a look, and motioned for her to persuade His Majesty.

Jiang Baizhu turned her head and pretended not to see it, she still remembered what happened to Xie Junze tossing her yesterday, she wished that this faint monarch would starve to death.

But Gonggong Li's gaze was too hot, Jiang Baizhu couldn't ignore it if he wanted to, and told himself in his heart that he wasn't worried that this faint gentleman would be hungry, and he couldn't bear Gonggong Li's begging.

After waiting patiently for a while, after hearing Xie Junze instruct someone to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, Jiang Baizhu took out the lotus leaf porridge he had just made from the bottom of the food box.

"Your Majesty, please use it slowly," Jiang Baizhu placed the lotus leaf porridge in front of Xie Junze.

Looking at this bowl of emerald green porridge, Xie Junze raised his eyebrows, "What kind of porridge is this, why is it still green?" ”

Hearing this, Gonggong Li couldn't help but look over curiously, it was really green, but this green was dotted with wolfberries, which was very pleasing to look at and appetizing.

"Your Majesty, why don't you guess?" Jiang Baizhu deliberately sold a pass.

Xie Junze heard her say this, scooped a part of the porridge with a spoon, put it to his nose and smelled it, it seemed to have a fragrance of lotus leaves, but this fragrance was mixed with the fragrance of wolfberry and millet.

Looking at the lotus leaves in the lotus pond, Xie Junze rarely showed his first smile today, "This is made of lotus leaves?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, it is exactly, the slave saw that this lotus flower bloomed just right, and this lotus leaf looked very pleasant, so the slave took matters into his own hands and picked a lotus leaf to make this porridge." Jiang Baizhu lowered his head and said with a blessing.

Looking at Jiang Baizhu's respectful appearance, Xie Junze's mood that had just gotten a lot better was suddenly ruined again, when did this girl be so respectful in front of him.

Pursed his lips into a straight line, exuding a cold aura all over his body, making Jiang Baizhu secretly muttered to himself What is wrong with this person, is it okay to release Weiya all day long.

No matter what Jiang Baizhu thought in her heart, she didn't say it, and the entire pavilion was very quiet for a while.

Not far away, a group of white swans are playing in the water, not far from them, a pair of black swans snuggled up to each other, leaning together and swimming slowly, from time to time for each other to comb their hair, very affectionate.

"Your Majesty, do you know why this swan is so popular?" Jiang Baizhu thought about it and broke the calm.

"Oh? But because the swans are beautiful and cute? Xie Junze really doesn't know why this swan is so popular.

Jiang Baizhu stretched out his hand and pointed to a white swan not far from the black swan and asked. "Your Majesty, can you see that swan playing alone not far away?"

"What's so strange about that?" Xie Junze was still puzzled.

"Have you ever heard a swan's story about love? Swans only choose one mate in their lives, and if the other one dies, the swans will not find a mate again, they will die alone. Jiang Baizhu paused and continued to speak.

"Compared to the swan, the mandarin duck looks very affectionate......" Jiang Baizhu's words were not finished, and Gonggong Li suddenly interrupted her.

"This ...... The slave also knows that the mandarin duck also symbolizes love, and the folk women also like to embroider something with the mandarin duck. Gonggong Li smiled and spoke.

Hearing this, Jiang Baizhu shook his head, "No, no, Gonggong Li knows that mandarin ducks are not like swans, in the eyes of ordinary people, no matter where they go, they are in and out of pairs, can you know why?" This is because mandarin ducks will not choose only one mate in their life, and when one party leaves, they will choose another mate. ”

"Oh, I didn't know that this swan was so infatuated, in comparison, the mandarin duck is still flowery." Xie Junze looked at the swan not far away, and said with a smile, no one noticed, but a trace of loneliness slipped under his eyes.

"I can't say that, Your Majesty, although the swan is infatuated, if one is not careful, it will end up with a lonely old age, and although the mandarin ducks are attentive, they will not feel lonely." Jiang Baizhu looked at the swan, thinking that if her husband couldn't be the only one in the future, she would rather learn from the swan and grow old alone.

Although she also knows that her idea is a little too peculiar, there is no shortage of people in this world who will live for a lifetime, so her future husband will definitely be like this.
